conducted a street play program to create awareness among village parents

and children regarding sandals need and its importance during night hours

and rainy seasons , since it is a bad conductor of electricity.

president and spoke to him about the needful condition of our school

children . Then he assured us to render his help to give 100 pairs of sandals

to our school children
